Dominic John Pierceton is the perfect gentleman-a tall, devastatingly handsome American ambassador with a chiseled jawline, piercing blue eyes, and a carefully measured charm that commands every room. His life is built on control, his reputation spotless, his restraint unwavering. But the moment he meets Maria Elenna "Mela" Dellos Valles-Montejo-the shy, eighteen-year-old daughter of the Philippine President with a quiet grace that hides her own buried desires-his world tilts in ways he never anticipated. Mela's innocence is disarming, her blushes revealing what her lips won't dare say. She's only known men like him in the pages of her sister's forbidden romance novels, but Dominic's attention stirs something deeper, something that makes her heart race and leaves her wanting more. For Mela, the stakes are just as high; she knows how hard her mother worked to become president, and risking her family's reputation is the last thing she wants. Yet, with each encounter, she finds herself caught between loyalty to her family and her undeniable pull toward the ambassador. Dominic tells himself he must keep his distance, yet every stolen glance, every accidental touch ignites a desire he can't ignore. Bound by duty and a flawless public image, he's always been in control-but with Mela, that control begins to slip. Behind closed doors, propriety and restraint give way to something darker, a chemistry neither of them can resist. Their worlds are at stake, and yet, neither can bring themselves to walk away. With each encounter, the pull between them grows stronger, promising a forbidden romance that will test how far The Gentleman is willing to go-and just how much Mela is willing to risk.

(The Lost Souls on Tour: The Second Tour) Wants; are something that can drive us to do everything in order to have what we desire. People frequently remark: that if you want something, you must work hard for it. Pero paano kung may mga taong una pa lang, kayang-kaya nang makuha ang mga bagay na gusto nila nang hindi pinaghihirapan? With one lift of a finger, they can already take a grasp of the things that they desire, something that other people envy the most. And that is the case for Rhysand Amias Trevino. With a golden spoon in his mouth, he can always get all the things that he desires--from securing a position in a band, being the captain ball of the basketball team, fame, alcohol and cigarettes, parties, to girls who will do anything just to please him. Walang hirap, puro sarap. Even in school, he barely attends his classes just to do the things that he likes. Dahil para sa kaniya, ano pa ba ang halaga ng buhay kung hindi mo naman gagawin ang mga bagay na magpapasaya sa 'yo? Kung hindi mo naman makukuha ang mga bagay na gusto mo? Pero minsan, kahit anong kakayahan ang mayroon ka pa, kung ang isang bagay ay hindi itinadhana na maging sa 'yo, hinding-hindi mo makukuha. Being greedy is something that Rhys has been sporting since he was born in this world. But when it comes to her, he learned to be selfless. He never thought he would end up wanting something that could put him in a place where he has to let go of all the things that he has in his life. Pero kahit anong gawin mo, may laban ka pa ba kung siya na mismo ang may ayaw sa 'yo? May magagawa ka pa ba kung siya na mismo ang umalis sa buhay mo? Rhys had no idea that he will find his demise in his own salvation. He had no idea that one day, he will just find himself shedding tears under the rain as he watch her leave him carrying his soul...carrying his heart. - I do not own the book cover that I used, credit to the rightful owner.

(The Lost Souls on Tour: The First Tour) Reed Gustave Argyros was born with an embodiment of rock and roll, and music running in his veins. He believes that his passion for music is the sole thing that only matters to him after his mother died. Yet, with one glimpse of her obsidian orbs where the darkness conceals, Gustave had no idea that her gaze would be his demise. If love at first sight doesn't exist, then why did Gustave sense the unknown throbbing of his heart from the minute the ocean touched the darkness? Wala na, alam na niyang nahulog na siya. Who wouldn't anyway? Kaya nga gagawin niya ang lahat upang pati ang kadiliman, mahulog din sa asul na dagat. Hindi siya papayag na siya lang ang nababaliw rito. One-sided love? Hell no. He will get her, he will own her. And he is sure that he can succeed. Gustave was confident that he will get everyone under his control. Sensuous, sexy, and hot. He even got the looks, the body, the voice, and the chivalry that could make every woman fall onto their knees. But when it comes to her, he suddenly feels insecure. Isang sulyap, hindi na muling nasundan. Isang salita, hindi na muling napansin. One question made Gustave ponder if there is still something lacking in him. Gustave isn't a fan of giving up. Thus, he will do anything to make her notice him, to make her know him. Ngunit hindi lahat ng bagay aayon sa gusto niya. Years had passed, and he had gone unnoticed. Imbis na magsawa, lalong nahulog. Ngunit mananatili na lang ba siyang nakatingin mula sa malayo? Wala na ba talaga siyang pag-asa? When he will be noticed? When she will know him? Will she ever know him? - [Grammatical Errors, Typo Errors, and Loopholes ahead.
